The Bible itself is a historical record that is often discounted, but over and over again it has been shown that it accurately speaks about people, places, and events in the ancient world. While we believe that as the Word of God it is more than a historical document, it is not less.

It is evident that beliefs stemming from antiquity regarding the existence of mythical creatures continued into the early modern period, despite clear statements of caution from Augustine. Popular superstition and mythology filtered into the minds of many academics when faced with new, but limited numbers of primate specimens from Africa and Asia.

What is the evidence for it? Where does it fit into Biblical history? What caused it? This weeks’ episode has the answers.

The assumption that Darwin did not convert is relatively easy to reconcile with the available evidence. In contrast, the notion that he did become a Christian seems to me to be very difficult to reconcile with several aspects. In any case, the truth or otherwise of creation or evolution is not affected by whether or not Darwin changed his mind.

Skeptics often say the account of Noah’s Flood is not credible, because it would be impossible to fit two of every creature in the world onto a single boat and sustain them for a year. But when one considers the size of the Ark and the number of animals Noah needed to take, this challenge turns out to be not so daunting. Further challenges are also raised and addressed as well, including how fish and insects could survive the Flood conditions despite not being present on the Ark.

Leading evolutionists at a special conference agree that what is taught in classrooms today is inadequate in explaining our existence. But teaching that God created is not considered.

Scientific American: “in the lingo of evolutionary biology, natural selection favored those cats that were able to cohabit with humans and thereby gain access to the trash and mice.” In contrast, the supposed evolution pathway from primordial cell to Persian cats, pumas and panthers requires an increase in genetic information.

Genesis 11 implies that the Flood survivors set out westward from a camp not far to the east of the plain of Shinar in southern Iraq. A map shows that the camp must have been in the western part of the Zagros mountains.

Is ape and human DNA really 99% similar? Many people believe humans evolved from and apelike ancestor, but science disagrees: we were created!

Hell is a place of judgment and torment prepared for Satan and the angels who rebelled with him. But why do humans also go there? Really, the question that should boggle our minds is not “How can God send people to Hell?” but “How can God save people from Hell?” If this makes us uncomfortable to think about, it should, because every person outside Christ faces that penalty.

What are creationists to do with the word fossil? It seems there are two choices. Either creationists can redefine fossil to fit the creationary viewpoint every time we use it, or invent a new word.

Does the Bible rule out feathered dinosaurs? Is there any evidence for them? What are the obstacles to turning a dinosaur into a bird?

The ‘missing links’—hailed as proof for evolution—are examined and debunked.

The rainbow is a spectacular sight for man, the assurance we have that there will never be another global flood comes from God. He is the one who will ‘remember’ His covenant.

There is little doubt that the genuine discovery of certain objects would be both exciting and a powerful witness to the truth of the biblical record. However, we need to be careful not to become like some medieval pilgrims, keen to have relics to supplement (or supplant) the worship of the living God.

Jesus and Paul linked important doctrines to a real, historical Genesis. This episode explores tips on telling others the truth about how to be saved, considering that many think the Bible cannot be trusted.
